Mr. Brawner
He was not only the best boss that I ever had but the closest I had to a father figure. He not only taught me this trade that has allowed me to raise a lovely family but he taught me about life. I was 20 years old when I met Mr. Brawner I was inexperienced unqualified and he looked past that and gave me an opportunity and said if I learn this and learn it well I will always have a job you were so right that’s the kind of person he was. Mr. Brawner took a chance on me gave me all the skills I needed to become successful and I always wanted to make him proud. I remember when I found out the first time I was going to be a father at 21 years old and I came to Mr. Brawner scared not sure what I was going to do Mr. Brawner took me in the training room were we spent so much time had a man to man talk with me about doing the right thing and being a responsible parent how that was the most import job of all and Like so many times Mr. Brawner was right that was 11 years ago and now I have 2 children with that same women who is now my wife I met 12 years ago along with two adopted children. There always is that one person that comes in your life and makes your world that much better. Mr. Brawner was that person in my life and I am where I am because he didn’t turn me away and gave me a chance when many others wouldnt. To His family wife and children Thank you so much for sharing him with us Mr. Brawner has deeply touched the lives of so many people myself especially he never once treated me like an employee he treated me like family developing in my career I have found that to be an extremely rare trait. If there is anything the family needs please feel free to contact me day or night 334-216-8637

Tab, words can not express how shocked and saddened I am to learn of Scott’s passing. He was a truly good person and I always respected him as a Boss and a friend. Had not seen him in a while but I thought of him often. Please take comfort in knowing that he truly loved you and will be watching over you and his little girl forever. I will be praying for you.
